Abstract:
The connection between supersymmetric quantum mechanics and the inverse scattering problem is utilized to construct symmetric reflectionless potentials with an arbitrary number of bound state levels. A relation between Backlund transformations and supersymmetry is explored. The transformations of interest relate a potential with a given spectrum to one with an additional bound state below all the rest. This potential may be regarded as an instantaneous solution of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. The Backlund transformation is just that which adds a soliton to a multi-soliton KdV solution.
